We have just set up a Win 3k Server for approx 300 desktops and I have been left with the task of writing learning guides for people on how to use the new network (users are used to working with Netware).

- Windows XP Support >> problem with re-installing windows xp home edt!!!!!Hi Everyone,
I use Windows XP Home Edt with Service Pack 2.
Long story short....
I had a problem, which I thought was to do with my Windows, so I tried to
re-install it.
A bit of the way through the re-install, it told me I had a prblem with my
install disc (can't see any scratches, but who knows). So anyway I restarted
Windows and it has worked fine since then (touch wood!!). Since then, when I
start my computer I have to sit next to it and wait, I get a screen that
comes up that asks me which operating system I want to start. I can either
start my original Windows XP home edition or I can opt for the Windows
Install/Setup option, even thought there is no disc in the drive.
I guess my question is, how do I get the computer to start up with the
original (and configuration that wasn't the problem) without sitting next to
it waiting for that screen to appear?
Many Thanks In Advance,
Best Regards,
Maria x

- Windows XP Security >> private foldersI have a question.
I have had some problems with windows xp and decided that
it would be best to just use my spare hard drive and
install winxp again to recover all my data. I came across
a problem of not being able to recover the data that I
made private. I even tried to put my user name and
password to what they were on that account before, but it
didn't work.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

- Windows XP >> Relocating Documents and SettingsI found the Win2k solution for relocating this folder to a different location both during (unattended) install and afterwards. The latter won't do the trick in XP. Anyone a good suggestion on how I move this folder to another partition on an existing XP (Pro) install ?

Windows XP Perform Maintain >> Windows Update
When I try to access Windows Updates I get the following
message:
"Access Denied
Network policy settings prevent you from using Windows
Update to download and install updates on your computer.
If you believe you have received this message in error,
please check with your system administrator."
I have followed the advice which is available from the
Windows site including that which is available from third
party "help" sites but I keep getting the same message.
I have installed SP1.
Can anyone help me with this problem please.

- Windows XP >> Drive order...Just installed XP Home ed. SP2 in a newly assembled system box and Windows
ended up on drive H:\
Part of the reason was I fitted a camera card reader, connected to a USB pin
header on the motherboard that seems to have been allocated drives c d e f
but, the cd r/w drive has ended up as drive g:\
...and as I said Windows is on H:\ [ 40gb hd ...all as drive H:\ ]
I know I can unplug the card reader, reinstall and connect it afterwards
but, how did the cd r/w drive end up as G:\ ?
...or could Windows be left on drive H:\ ...or is it preferable to have
Windows on C:\ , that's the way I've always worked.

- Windows XP Support >> Missing Hard Drive in Windows ExplorerHi !
Hope you can help.
Using Windows XP Pro.
2 Hard Drives and 2 ROMS
Hard Drives are 80g partitioned into two C: OS and G: Data and a 160g F:
Data.
The problem is that the F: drive shows up in Device Manager and in Disk
Management but not in Windows Explorer, C: and G: do show up and are
accessible.
C: and G: are Master and G: is Slave on IDE 1 and the two ROM's are in IDE
2.
Belarc also shows the F: drive.
Other info.
Vol = Local Disk (F)
Layout = Simple
Type = Dynamic
File Sys = NTFS
Status = Healthy
Capacity = 149.05
Free = 103
% Free = 69%
Fault tolerance = No
Overhead = 0%
Please help me access the F: drive
No other Apps have been added and all virus and spyware are up to date and
are running.
ThanX again.

- Windows XP Network >> internet connection interuptedSituation: there are three computers accessing the internet via Verizon DSL,
there are two modems and an ethernet switch. I don't understand the set-up,
why not use one modem to take care of all the systems? It seems one computer
is using one modem and the others are using the other modem. Does it have to
do with speed and security?
Question: Evrytime time one of the computers, The one in the main office, is
turned off we loose connection to the internet. All systems are restored by
disconnecting the power source to each of the DSL modems

- Windows XP Support >> USB plug-in, plug-out, soundsYou know the little dee-dum, dum-dee sound that the system makes when
plugging or unplugging a USB device? Well, just sat here now and my system
is doing this about 5 times a minute, then it'll go quiet for maybe 5 or 10
minutes, and then it may do it again (or it may not) - but I'm not plugging
or unplugging any USB devices at all. In other words, this is completely
random and for no reason whatsoever.
Any ideas anyone?
Cheers,
John

- Windows XP Network >> VPN Connection or File SharingThis is a follow-up on my previous question regarding making a remote
connection to my home network via VPN to access my files and my faxes. On my
previous question it was suggested that I just do file sharing.
My problem is when I am on a different location, my laptop's ip address
range changes. How van I make it static so I can add such ip on my router as
trusted ip.
Thanks,

- Windows XP >> configuring a laptop to be a member of/logon to 2 domainsHi...
Does anyone know a way of making a laptop be a member of two domains at the
same time so the user can choose what domain he/she wants to login to at the
windows login prompt... We have two offices with different domains... and
some users work at both. The domains are untrusted as one of the
networks is looked after by a sbs2000 server...

- Windows XP Network >> "Internet connection" under network connections?I recently noticed on 2 of my XP machines I have a second network connection
called "internet connection". It is running at 8 MBps. I still have my LAN
connection (100MBps). The properties for these connections seem to point to
each other, like a gateway. If I disable it I lose connectivity to the net.
I am running SP1 on both machines. What exactly is this? I don't have it
on any other XP machines and they run fine.

- customize >> Customizing mouse wheel scrollingI just upgraded to windows XP and noticed that the mouse
scroll wheel doesn't function the same as in Windows 2000.
The basic problem:
In windows 2000, if you have multiple window frames open
and you point in one of them frames, then scroll with the
wheel, the pages scroll. If you move to another frame and
scroll with the wheel, the pages scrolls.
In windows XP, when I move between frames with the pointer
and scroll - it scrolls in the old frame, not the new one.
I need to click within the new frame in order for it to
scroll in the new frame. I find this irritating and would
like to know if I can customize it to the windows 2000
method of point and scroll.
Thanks in advance,
David

- Windows XP >> Is my graphics card broken ?Hello all
I posted a message a whila ago with regard to problems with graphic
hungry files not opeing on my computer. If I could ask for a bit more
assistance ?
Right clicking on my desktop and going, Properties, settings, advanced,
adapter gives me the following:
Chip type: unavailable
DAC type: unavailable
memory size: unavailable
Adapter string: unavailable
Bios information: unavailable
Thanks to info provided here I uploaded Everest and it tells me I have
an
"nVIDIA GeForce FX 5200" as my Video Adapter and 3D accelerator.
Belarc adviser does not recognise this at all.
I have completely unintstalled all nVidia software / drivers and tried
to start again from the nVidia website but always end up with an error
message stating that "there are no suitable drivers" on my PC.
My latest plan was to remove the Graphics Card to ensure all the
physical connections were OK. I ensured there were no drivers /
Software associated with the card before i did this in the vein hope
that my computer would recognise the graphics card. All seems fine and
as you can see, the PC is working, but still no sign of the graphics
card.
Am I barking up the wrong tree altogether ? My problem continues to be
larger pictures within "fotopic.net" not showing, some thumbnails (web
based) not showing. Unable to run already installed games (Microsoft
flight and trainsims). I get no error messages, they just do not load.
I have been unable to install new games. Google Earth will not run.
I am using Microsodt XP 2000 with service pack 2.
If my card is shot, any suggestions for a good alternative.
Once again thanks for any help on advance, I really miss Google Earth
!!!
